In this memoir, John McCain, the son of two US admirals, describes the search for meaning in his life as a soldier who fought in the Vietnam war. He describes with candour the life of a career in the US navy and how his daredevil attitude to life was shaped by his incarceration as a PoW in Vietnam. 'In prison I fell in love with my country...Freedom is America's honour, and all honour comes with obligations'. It is an unforgettable memoir of a man who served his country with heroic deeds yet struggles with his own shortcomings.
